Bought the bundle after this

Easiest pattern I've bought in a long time. This was my very first amigurumi and I had no trouble at all. Did the ears in a contrasting color, highly recommend. It even lists how much yarn you'll need in yards, which saved me from a mid-project yarn run. Chef's kiss.

My new favorite

Perfect from start to finish. Crochet is my anxiety outlet, and this one still taught me something. Gave it to my wife. I've been asked for four more. Download link came through instantly after checkout. Thanks for a great pattern!

H

Worth it

Yes. Just yes. The PDF is laid out so you can print just the pages you need. I printed it and checked off rows with a pencil. Download link came through instantly after checkout. Can't wait for more from this shop.

This pattern made me feel like I actually know what I'm doing. Made two: one for my grandson and one that is NOT leaving my house. My Goat came out about 6 inches tall using a 4mm hook and Caron Simply Soft. Zero complaints.

Needs a video

Cute end result, frustrating middle. Great TV-watching project. Made a mini version with thinner yarn and the proportions held up. The stitch count on one round of the ears didn't match for me (could be my error).

A keeper

Love love love this pattern. Added a keychain loop to the top, now it lives on my bag. Gave it to our foster kiddo. I've been asked for four more. Used Paintbox cotton and it came out about 6 inches tall. Written for a real beginner. If you can do a magic ring, sc, inc and dec, you can make this.

Clear and easy

I rarely leave reviews but this earned one. I crochet a few evenings a week so I was nervous, but it went fine. Instructions are short and direct. No life story at the top, just the pattern. Compared to the ones on Etsy this was cheaper and clearer. The proportions are spot on. The ears is the perfect size. I'd forgotten how fun amigurumi is. Will be making this again.

Would buy again

Solid pattern. It even lists how much yarn you'll need in yards, which saved me from a mid-project yarn run. Wish it came with a two-color variation, but easy to improvise.

Perfect beginner pattern

Yes. Just yes. I've been crocheting for 30+ years, and this one still taught me something. I swapped the colors to match my team and it still worked perfectly. The tail and the beard are what make it look like an actual Goat instead of a blob.

Even my husband liked it

This was a joy to make. I'm getting back into crochet after 20 years and I had no trouble at all. I usually have to rewrite patterns in my own notes. Not this one. Made it in one lazy Sunday with Hobby Lobby I Love This Yarn. Adding the bundle to my cart as I type this.

Adorable and easy

This Goat came out SO cute. Checkout was easy and the file was in my email in seconds.

My Goat is sitting on my desk right now and I can't stop smiling at it. I added a little scarf and it looks even cuter.

Very cute, one small thing

Very cute, minor hiccup. Made it in a weekend with Bernat Blanket. It went to a church bazaar and now the whole family wants one. The first round of the horns was a bit confusing until I reread it.

L
L. Reed
Great pattern

This Goat came out SO cute. I make these for my Etsy shop and I had no trouble at all. Went up to bulky yarn and now it's a full-on pillow. I liked that the color changes for the tail are spelled out instead of just 'switch colors here'.

Very cute, one small thing

Really nice pattern with one small gripe. I run a crochet club at my school and this was perfect for me. Skipped the safety eyes and embroidered them for a baby-safe version. Pattern made that easy. Very satisfying little project. A left-handed note would've been nice, but I figured it out.

Tasha L
Happy with it

Nearly five stars. This was my very first amigurumi and I had no trouble at all. There's a picture for every tricky part, including how to attach the tail. Second pattern I've bought from Willis and both were great. I've bought Goat patterns from three other shops and this is the only one I finished. I added a little scarf and it looks even cuter. The first round of the beard was a bit confusing until I reread it.

Love the beard

Ok this is my new favorite pattern. This was my very first amigurumi, and this one still taught me something. I liked that the color changes for the beard are spelled out instead of just 'switch colors here'. The PDF arrived in my inbox before I'd even closed the tab. Crocheting this was honestly relaxing. I've bought Goat patterns from three other shops and this is the only one I finished. Would give six stars if I could.

10/10

Ok this is my new favorite pattern. I'm getting back into crochet after 20 years so I was nervous, but it went fine. Took me about 4 hours start to finish including sewing on the ears. Great TV-watching project. Go get it.

Great, minor notes

Good pattern, would recommend with a caveat. I crochet between classes so I was nervous, but it went fine. Very satisfying little project. I swapped the colors to match my team and it still worked perfectly. Pages printed a little small on my printer. Zoomed in on my tablet instead.

Adorable Goat

Love love love this pattern. I make these for my Etsy shop, and this one still taught me something. Every round has a stitch count. That alone makes this better than half the patterns I've paid for. Made it in a weekend with Bernat Blanket.

This was a joy to make. Used velvet yarn (not recommended for beginners!) and it came out a chunky 10 inches with bulky yarn. Made two: one for my grandson and one that is NOT leaving my house.

Omar Taylor
Happy with it

Solid pattern. I'm a grandma of six, and this one still taught me something. The shaping on the beard is clever. Didn't expect that from a 'beginner' pattern. It was for myself, honestly and it was the hit of the party. I'd love a yardage estimate per color, not just total.

L
Lin
Great, minor notes

Great pattern, not quite perfect. I left out the beard by accident and honestly it still looks cute. Made it for my book club swap and they have not put it down since. Crocheting this was honestly relaxing. The photos for the assembly step are what sold me. No guessing where the ears goes. I'd love a yardage estimate per color, not just total.

No frogging needed

This Goat came out SO cute. I'm left-handed and usually struggle with patterns and I had no trouble at all. Finished in one evening. The horns is my favorite part. I left out the tail by accident and honestly it still looks cute. The PDF arrived in my inbox before I'd even closed the tab. This one's for my twin nephews. Already planning the next one.
